Do you know the benefits of the mud of San Pedro del Pinatar?

What are they?

The Salinas de San Pedro del Pinatar are located next to the Mar Menor, in this protected natural area of the Region of Murcia we find the famous mud of Lo Pagán, which has all kinds of healing properties. It is a kind of clayey mud that is applied to the skin, but how did this natural wonder originate? It is the result of the sedimentation of minerals over the centuries due to its high mineralisation and the large number of hours of sunshine that the area enjoys.

In 1995, the University of Murcia analysed its waters, revealing a high concentration of magnesium, calcium, potassium, fluorine, anions, chloride and sulphate, ideal for use in different curative therapies. However, we are not the first to make use of mud, as other ancient civilisations, such as the Romans and Greeks, had already benefited from its beneficial properties. Nowadays, several therapy centres, specialised in thalassotherapy and beauty, have incorporated these muds in their routines.

How are they applied?

It is recommended to apply them in the sun, as in this way they are absorbed more quickly and the clay dries faster. It is applied by spreading a light layer on the skin and leaving it to dry for an hour. After this time, it should be removed by rinsing the area with salt water from the Salinas, due to its high saline concentration, which helps to increase the benefits of the treatment.
